Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for May 12, 2023

Match made! XD <3

This better work out or I’m going to stop reading big nate (I’m not, just channeling my inner Dee Dee)

I love her so much is really pushing it

Every girlfriend Nate has had he has had something in common with them. For Angie they both liked cheez doodles and art. For Kelly soccer. For Trudy theme park rides. Now Nate has a ton in common with daphne

This had just better go well.

She passed Nate’s test

Nate you just found the most perfect girl for you!

That was oddly fast

Well, well, well, looks like I got what I wanted! (mostly, please go to her house eventually). Nate and Daphne acknowledged that they should know a little more about each other, and well, here we are! So Daphne likes his roguish charm and shares his dislikes, and Nate seems to just like who she is! Maybe tomorrow he’ll expand on it too, who knows?

Point is, this is another banger! I don’t think a girl has ever been this much like and not like him, not to mention that she totally agreed with his hate list, which I am sure has never happened before! How did Gina become friends with her XD

Nate’s expression in the last panel as he says that. That’s just wholesome, folks.

9/10, it did everything I hoped for, the joke sort of lands for me, and it’s adorable as all heck!!

They’re perfect for each other

Perfect match!

I"m really liking this arc over the previous “nate gets a love intrest” one’s i’ve read as they’ve taken more time to give both chemistry instead of just “stuff in common”… while still giving them some things in common. And these being his first questions.. are as funny as they are prudent.

My man Nate’s about to cry. After a long time, he’s being mature with a girl :)

Tailor-made for him…or rather, Lincoln-made.

Woah there, Nate. It’s a bit too early to be using the “L” word.

Not so fast. Let’s hear her requirements. Audiatur et altera pars.

This is way too good to be true!

Now that Nate is on his way to getting a new girlfriend, rank his previous love interests from worst to best (Trudy, Angie, Kelly, Daisy, Ruby)

Match.

I’m glad this is going well for Nate. I can’t help but think, however, that of all the girls in this strip, Dee Dee is the most fun to be around. Dee Dee is the sort of girlfriend I wish I had when I was in middle school. When I got to high school I actually met a girl like her (same race too), and like with Nate and Dee Dee, we were just good friends. We lost touch, and I always regretted never trying to pursue something further.

Looks like Charlie Brown’s lovesick face xD

Okay, to be honest, in my opinion, this is probably Nate’s weirdest comic.“Hey Daphne! I like you and you like me! Lets go on a date!”“I love her so much.”Its funny that way XD

To be fair, we only know what they both DON’T like, for the time being.

that seals the deal!

I still think Angie was the best.

Script Rating: 8/10

KEEPER! Keep Her!!

The fact that Daphne didn’t question what he asked and went along with it is proof that they’re made for each other. And obviously, the answer Daphne gave.

A match made in heaven.

Okay, at least she’s better than Trudy was..

Strip rating: 7/10 I mean, this is just more filler, imo…

Holy crap he’s hit the jackpot

I like this girl already

Well that just puts everything together, their perfect

A+

ITS A COUPLE! THEY ARE PERECT!

They are made for each other

Now it’s time for Nate to say Daphne what she thinks about Cheez Doodles

Going well… I thought she would say she liked those things but it turned for the good!

Jesus, it’s like Daphne is a Nate clone, but much more academic.

She’s perfect! Too perfect… I’m starting to worry this is all just Nate’s dream. I really hope not, because they are really good together.

A match made in hevan… hopefully

daphne feels like almost a female version of nate-but just smarter

Well, at least She dosen’t have Ailurophobia.

glad to see that pierce knows what he is doing. im glad he aint rushing these characters into relationships. its funny how everybody hated this arc when it started, but now everybody loves it because its a girlfriend arc. i remember this arc starting with gina wanting to become a better person, but that got thrown out the window…i honestly think that was an idea that should have been taken seriously and could have led to some good character development. but i guess its time for another girlfriend arc than.

Alright, they’re perfect.

Your passing with flying colors so far Girl…..

In a world so full of hate, this is so wonderful.

… a slow start, but still a start……..

Daphne has W Rizz

….I was waiting very patiently since yesterday for a very exciting strip…..I guess this starts things off though 6.8/10

nates conversation starters be like lol

OK, OK, this is getting better and better.

I wasn’t around for the other girls however I sure hope Daphne is a keeper. She’s a gem!

Actually, Nate likes pretty much every girl. If one just happens to like him, ehh

Thank you, Mr. Peirce, for giving us a really good long-term arc. This is great to see.

5.5/10 I honestly don’t think that this arc is ending this week. a reason for that is that Nate is gonna find a difference between him and Daphne. Then he is gonna make a whole scene and probably drag this arc on for maybe another week or two. But for now, everybody is hoping for this arc to end and it appears Nate has found his “Soul mate”.

Today is my birthday

Ok cool nate has found his girl the girl for him…i love this arc, it started off shaky but its slowing coming together.

Overall Rating: 10/10 | Art Rating: 8/10 | Punchline: 8/10

Totally forgot to do predictions!

1. Kiss

2. Going to her house

3. A reaction from Gina, Kim, Craig

4. More buildup

I say 1 or 2, hoping for 2

lol lets go nate!! 4/5 couldve happend quicker

I’m still staying positive for these two.

The big question is, does she like Cheeze Doodles, because that would be a deal breaker for Nate.

egg salad is peak

Egg salad is the worst!

Every single time so far all of his girlfriends have liked one of those things. They will hopefully last for awhile. Also, hopefully Nate times it on his watch like usual. Have a good day everybody. I’m happy and I hope everyone accomplished something they have been putting off, OR, talks to their crush/partner/spouse.<3

What a relief! I was afraid we were going to find ourselves in Aunty Acid territory (see today’s strip).

Awwww this is soo cute!The only thing is that the story is going nowhere

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THIS IS AWESOME. Me fan girling

just cos she’s allergic to cats doesn’t mean she hates them. Lots of people find cats absoutuley amazing and would kill all the dogs in world for one but are still allergic!

The perfect match

You do love her so much. A+

@Dark Side of the Horse good point

Is Daphne Nate’s longest relationship partner
